House of the Red Pearl

The 11 Best Restaurants & Bars At The South Street Seaport - New York - The Infatuation

"You get to this hidden Chinese-inspired spot in the Tin Building by going through a curtain at the back of Asian goods store Mercantile East. The dining room has lantern-like light fixtures and a huge mural of scenes from a Chinese village—design choices that feel extremely cheesy at best. Still, House of the Red Pearl has our favorite food at the Tin Building. Their top dish is a take on peking duck with crispy skin that we can’t stop thinking about. The experience leans upscale, and the room is relatively quiet, so it’s also a good place to take parents." - kenny yang, matt tervooren, hannah albertine, molly fitzpatrick
